The Longest Name of Place in New Zealand Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahononukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu Good luck pronouncing it! Answer Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu is a hill in North Island. It appears in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the longest name of a place in the world. It means the place where Tamatea Pokai Whenua sat down and played his nose flute (koauau) to his loved one (ki tana tahu) ***** i thtink you will find it is Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamatea turipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiw henuakitanatah and means the place where Tamatea, the man with big knees, who eats, sleeps and gobbles mountains, while playing his flute to his loved ones and if i could record audio, i could pronounce it.

That would be a matter of personal choice and would be influenced by the sort of interests that you have. Some people might enjoy visiting castles and choose Caernarfon or Beaumaris, while other might choose Snowdon or Cardiff. Personally I really like isle of Anglesey and the mountain Moel Siabod. Dinas Bran in northern Powys (near Llangollen) is a highly evocative ruin of a native Welsh castle and another popular favourite.

Hi,.
I can confirm that The Globs played at Meigan Fayre in the Preselly Mountains in West Wales in 1975, who along with Steve Hillage and Gong, were one of the main reasons that I went. Check out the website for the festival and the whole line-up is displayed..
I still have an official Festival T shirt, though it is a bit motheaten now, but MF stands in my memory as one of the great festivals of the 70's. It was small but the atmosphere was amazing, and the locals, who were reticent at first, gradually warmed to the atmosphere and the freaks, and we all ended up partying together..
Happy daze!.
